Ingredients

For the salmon:

  • 4 salmon fillets (about 180g each), skin removed

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp smoked paprika

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Bang Bang sauce:

  • ⅓ cup mayonnaise (Kewpie or regular)

  • 2 tbsp sweet chilli sauce

  • 1 tbsp Sriracha (adjust to taste)

  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup

  • 1 tsp rice vinegar or lime juice (optional)

For the crispy potatoes:

  • 500g baby potatoes, quartered

  • 1½ tbsp olive oil

  • ½ tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp smoked paprika

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For the rice:

  • 1 cup jasmine or basmati rice

  • 2 cups water

  • Pinch of salt

  • 1 tsp butter or oil (optional)

To garnish:

  • Spring onions, finely sliced

  • Toasted sesame seeds

  • Lime wedges

Instructions

1. Cook the rice:

  • Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

  • In a saucepan, combine rice, water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 12–15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed.

  • Remove from heat and let rest, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork.

2. Make the crispy potatoes:

  • Toss quartered potatoes in olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper.

  • Place in the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook at 200°C for 15–18 minutes, shaking halfway through, until golden and crispy. Set aside and keep warm.

3. Prepare the salmon:

  • While the potatoes are cooking, pat salmon fillets dry. Rub with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper.

4. Air fry the salmon:

  • After potatoes are done, cook the salmon at 200°C for 7–10 minutes, or until cooked through and lightly crisped. No need to flip.

5. Make the Bang Bang sauce:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chilli sauce, Sriracha, honey, and vinegar until smooth and creamy.

6. Assemble the dish:

  • Spoon rice onto each plate. Add crispy potatoes on the side.

  • Top with the air-fried salmon and drizzle generously with Bang Bang sauce.

  • Garnish with sliced spring onions, sesame seeds, and lime wedges.


Optional Add-ons

  • Add a side of quick pickled cucumber or shredded slaw for freshness.

  • For extra crunch, top salmon with crushed roasted peanuts before adding sauce.
